What do you need to do with the XU4 "gleam ASAP"? -
Issues with lamobo-r1 and new distribution
wildcat_paris replied to badrianiulian's topic in Allwinner A20
Quite expensive : Turris Omnia for gigabits/s fiber internet. for ADSL line, Lamobo-R1 is fine. -

write protected? yes and no, that is the purpose of the sd_fusing.sh script to allow boot0 to be rewritten. https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/blob/a82dc77aee0c286de600192365922dc74741185f/patch/u-boot/u-boot-odroidxu-next/xu4_sd_fusing.patch 1/ the eMMC2SD converter Hardkernel provides cannot see boot0/1/etc. internal partitions. 2/ Only a XU4 booted from SD card can do that & use sd_fusing.sh script 3/ if you don't overwrite boot0 of eMMC, you have a creepy uboot 2012.07 which will probably fail with single partion/vanilla kernel. you cannot rely on Hardkernel for software, o -

Me. I haven't seen uboot 2012.07 working with a single partition. I can be wrong, of course. And anyway, without overwriting boot0 partition on eMMC with a proper uboot & blobs, I have tested, you are not gonna make it working. In the best case, SD could work. my next step would have been to test more fully how uboot 2016.09 & legacy kernel works (HDMI stuff & so on) but... read your words. A project is to attract people, not repeal them. -

@zador.blood.stain @mrneilypops XU4 : uboot 2012.07 needs a dual boot partition. So uboot 2016.09 is needed as https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/pull/520 or a switch back to dual partitions for legacy kernel (with uboot 2016.09, a writing/booting to a SD card is needed, then somewhere in the SD card there is sd_fusing.sh to write the boot loader in "boot0" partition) @zador.blood.stain: better switch back to dual partition for legacy kernel on XU4 for the moment. -

@zador.blood.stain You did good about the missing kernel options. it is running. (Still need the update to rename or use xu4.dtb instead of xu3) but ok!!!! http://pastebin.com/Gwyuh7Kv http://pastebin.com/sVjga3bL the diff http://pastebin.com/zyanC78b probably we need to unify boot.cmd now both legacy/vanilla can boot with single partition uboot 2016.09 edit: uboot 2016.09 & legacy kernel, the fan doesn't seem to work edit2: so both legacy/vanilla boots with uboot 2016.09 with the diff (on SD, eMMC to be confirmed) -

@zador.blood.stain yes it "kind of" boots, but the system cannot go any further with root=<null> Sure the dtb file renaming is a "detail" I can handle. -

just an idea: would we create a subforum of Development for testing reports like Debian/Ubuntu Allwinner A10/A20, Allwinner H3, Amlogic, Freescale i.MX6x, Other boards with sticky stuff Or anything to have an overview for reports/status? just an idea. -

in case it can help, I have copied the kernels I compile for my L-R1 + a package with older swconfig and/or zip with binary http://guillaume.romagny.free.fr/armbian_kernel/ -

@zador.b.s your latest updates for XU4/next (uboot 2016.09) are working fine on SD, I will check when possible for legacy edit: for eMMC, the sd_fusing.sh script is needed to wipe out uboot 2012.07 from "boot0" with 2016.09. if not wiped, booting is weird/KO. -
[Device specific] Odroid XU4 part4 / PARTUUID
wildcat_paris replied to wildcat_paris's topic in Armbian build framework
my TODO list: 1/ (from zador.b.s) can you please test default branch on XU4 and report here? Last time command line didn't pass from u-boot to the kernel for some reason. 2/ looking why u-boot 2016.09 was not compiling. 3/ checking if 2016.05 can boot legacy kernel 4/ adding some documentation 5/ L-R1 https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/issues/511#issuecomment-256111716 -

[Device specific] Odroid XU4 part4 / PARTUUID
wildcat_paris replied to wildcat_paris's topic in Armbian build framework
@zador.blood.stain 1/ ok, pulled 3 files changes. Your UUID architecture is like a charm. On the 3rd testing, the SDcard was booting & system running (Jessie). I guess eMMC will be working as well because it was working with root=LABEL=rootfs (to be confirmed yet) 2/ initrd was already implemented and working for XU4 next, so no changes here. 3/ I will be looking when possible about why u-boot 2016.09 was not compiling. Still uboot 2016.05 can be used for both SD/eMMC (huge move from 2012.07) 4/ I will check if 2016.05 can boot legacy kernel 4/ I will be looking -

@dvachon please don't be so hard. Currently the small Armbian team is doing a lot, so much that I just cannot follow. There is a lot of progress and so far quite properly architectured. The only big issue, the team is too small and barely can communicate properly. That has led to a huge misunderstanding with zador.blood.stain & I (that I am sorry) What are your questions? -

FEL mass storage or writing images directly to eMMC
wildcat_paris replied to zador.blood.stained's topic in Development
Hello TK, were the SD & eMMC using GPT or MBR? I am a little lost about PARTUUID which is/was originally dedicated to GPT OR is there now an option (clean "trick") to identify datas (partition) in the MBR as a PARTUUID? Zador wasn't clear about this point. Only mentioning about shorter version of PARTUUID (edit) is it http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1583540 ? When reading eMMC spec - boot0/1 are SLC NAND memory (Odroid size = 4MB) - rpmb is a security feature mimicking a partition (4MB) - the remaining of the eMMC is MLC NAND for Samsung (if -
FEL mass storage or writing images directly to eMMC
wildcat_paris replied to zador.blood.stained's topic in Development
Hello Igor, I am not sure it is even possible in general. At least, the XU4 eMMC, the PC-SD2eMMC converter only displays the /dev/mmcblk0 (& not the other partitions boot0 boot1 rpmb) And what I have tested so far, you need a kernel with eMMC magement to access all the partitions. -
@nz1 Armbian crew advises to buy legitimate Samsung EVO sdcard as reliable (32GB / 8 USD at gearbest) your story shows the card (or writer) is very low quality but still working when writing @ 1MB/s (which is lesser than "class 2")
